Abstract

Two novel triterpene sulfates have been isolated from Fusarium compactum by bioactivitydirected fractionation using an assay which measures the inhibition of proteolytic activity of rhino virus 3C protease on a fluorogenic peptide substrate. The compounds were purified by countercurrent and reverse phase chromatographies. NMR, MS, UV and IR studies revealed two triterpene sulfates, uncommon metabolites of terrestrial fungi.
